Using Petty Cash from the Register with Shift Management

You can Pay Out petty cash from the Register whenever you need if you have Shift Management active. As you use the Pay Out function or if you Pay In for miscellaneous cash intake, the system will log each petty cash withdrawal or deposit in your Shift Report so you can account for it. Here is how to Pay Out from the Register:

1. After you have logged into the Till you will use, in the panel on the right, click the Ellipsis button to view a list of drop-down options.

2. Click Pay Out, as pictured above.
3. The Payouts panel will open. Enter the Payout Amount you will withdraw from the cash drawer.

4. If needed, enter Notes about what the payout will be used for.
5. Once you're all set, click to Confirm Amount.

6. The Payout Receipt panel will open, listing details about the payout. You can click to Print Receipt or Cancel. The information will go into the Shift Report either way.
7. If you cancel, you will need to click the Open button next to Till to access the cash drawer, but if you print the Payout Receipt, the drawer will open in the normal way as the print starts.
